picked up our score sheets from the beehive brewoff today. we didn't win anything this year, which is a bummer. but brynnemaker and diplomanator scored in the "very good" range and we got some good feedback from the judges...so we'll just have to step up our game. shippenmaker scored in the "good" range- the judges said it contained too much shocker.



since I was near wasatch, I stopped in for some more pumpkin ale. I'm 2 sixpacks up on bake already. I also saw this new amber ale in the cold case and decided to give it a whirl. got to say, don't think I need to travel for fat tire if they keep this in stock. It's a full strength (5.75%abv) american amber ale that's crisp, super malty, and finishes with a nice hop bitterness that's sort of like a pale ale but more subtle. pretty tasty. really wish wasatch used pry off instead of twist off bottles though.
